by Gina HarrisAlso available in paperback at amazon.comJoanie’s got all of the problems of an almost
seventeen year old girl. She’s trying to get her driver’s license, her
mom and dad are pressuring her about going to prom, and she never can
seem to make it to the bus on time.
Even worse, Joanie likes
girls, not boys, and all of the girls in her hometown are pretty darned
straight. Her best friend, Zane, can attest to that, considering that
he never has trouble getting a girl, even if he’s not interested in the
freshmen who swarm around him. When new girl Kate shows up, needing
tutoring in math and chemistry, Joanie figures Zane will get the date,
like he always does, and that makes life even more difficult.
Joanie’s
in for a surprise, though, because Kate doesn’t fall for her
good-looking best friend. In fact, Kate seems to like girls, too, and
things get a little scary when Kate asks Joanie out on a date.
Somehow
Joanie knows if she says yes to Kate, things will change forever. Can
she manage to pass her driving test, get to prom, and come out to her
parents the way Kate wants her to? Or will Joanie’s seventeenth
birthday be the worst day in history?
